the deposit was close to £1,000.

How could this huge amount be paid by "mistake"?

Far from seeking redress via Australian law (or their government:eek: ) I'd be explaining to one or other of the recipients of this money that the booking is a very gross error and asking politely for a goodwill refund.

As the date is (early) next year, there is still leeway here for that date to be re-sold with little loss to the owner of the property. However, I'd be very surprised if a 100% refund will be forthcoming..

Some schools have obviously already broken up for the holidays!;)
